We spent a wonderful summer break last year at Whitecliff Bay. It was late August and the weather was lovely. The sea was even warm enough for the kids to swim in. As I’m preparing to send my son off to the Isle of Wight for his PGL school trip, I thought I’d go for a little weekend wander around the beautiful island.
White Cliff Bay
One of my favourite places on the Isle of Wight is Shanklin Chine. This gorgeous ravine has been open to the public since 1817. It has a drop to sea level of 105ft. It’s an inspiring place to visit and I plan to use the location in at least one of my future books.
The Chine leads you down to a beautiful beach.
I was able to capture a couple of good shots of a local buzzard.
Finally, some beach art and a gull.
I hope you’ve enjoyed this weekend wander.
That ravine area looks like a place I just want to stay all day :).
Sorry to go off topic but I just wanted to check am I still doing my re-post of your book on 9th? Ive got a new calendar and am putting all my dates in so want to check 🙂

Such beautiful photographs, Suzanne! I especially like the ravine, can see exactly why you’d want to use it in a story 🙂
